Feb 1 Meal Plan

Coming off my Whole30 eating, I'm working on a meal plan for my whole family.  For me this means it has to be gluten free, minimal processed foods, carb options that my kiddos like and I can pass on sometimes.  Filling, nutritious meals that everyone can eat and meet my eating goals.  I dislike cooking special for individual family members!  Here's my plan for breakfast and supper this week.  Lunch will be leftovers or eating out this week. 

Monday-
Breakfast:  Scrambled eggs & grapefruits
Supper:  Hamburgers with sauteed mushrooms, baked potatoes, roasted squash & broccoli

Tuesday-
Breakfast:  Chocolate Coffee Protein Breakfast Bowls
Supper:  Mini meatloaves, mashed potatoes, green beans, fruit salad

Wednesday-
Breakfast:  Swirly Crustless Quiche
Supper:  Greek Chicken, roasted sweet potatoes, cooked spinach, berries

Thursday-
Breakfast:  Chicken Apple Sausages
Supper:  Steak fajita meat, Lime Cilantro Rice, corn, something desserty TBD

Friday-
Breakfast:  Practical Paleo Pumpkin Pancakes, bacon
Supper:  Leftovers

Monday- make  pudding for Tuesday breakfast

Whole30 Thoughts

Well I'm starting a new week not eating Whole30.  What happened during my latest Whole30?  Well, it became a Whole25.  :)  Failure?  Well I suppose it is.  Whole30 rules would say it is.  Was it a waste of time?  Do I wish I never started?  Not at all!  I still had some benefits even if I didn't make it the whole 30 days.  The two big benefits are that I'm not craving sweets all the time and my blood sugars have regulated. I hope to do one again sometime soon, but for now I plan to go back to a 90% Paleo type diet.  I plan to really work on keeping sweets to a minimum.
